Here's an interesting poll which is about the Eddie (The Pet of iron Maiden) over the years:
 
Simply you can choose which Eddie you like and why?

I think the "Brave New World" cover is really cool with the face in the sky. I like "A Matter Of Life And Death" too with the army theme.

Hardly their best album, but Virtual XI has always had my favorite artwork:

Fear of the Dark for me.

Honourable mentions to Powerslave, Rock in Rio and Brave New World.

Dance of Death, while being a great album, easily gets the place for worst cover. And is thus the exact opposite of Virtual IX.

I was actually embarrassed to buy that album when I first bought it! Good thing the music was better than the poor CG cover!! LOL

I prefer the datrker-colored ones like Brave New World and The X-factor...
 
While the album is absolutely legendary, The Number of the Beast cover can't be more terrible...

Live After Death.  X factor is my least favorite.

I see the cover of The number of the Beast good, why is terrible?

I don't like the awful mix of colors and the absolutely terrible Devil... It doesn't look evil but utterly ridiculous...

Personally, I think their latest album, A Matter of Life and Death, has the best cover of them all. I especially love the use of those muted shades of grey and green, which make it by far the most tasteful and understated of their covers.

It's rather simple, but quite frightening!

Definitely Somewhere In Time.  It's full of all sorts of references to the rest of the Maiden catalog.

Either Live After Death or Powerslave. They all have great artwork.

Yeah, that's a kind of lousy album, but does have great artwork nonetheless.
